THE Scotland international has impressed fans and pundits alike with his performances this year, but now the striker is edging closer to some legendary Scottish football records.

First up for Griffiths will be the post-war league goalscoring mark, currently owned by Henrik Larsson for his record-breaking 35-goal haul in 2000/01 season. Brian McClair matched that mark in 1986-87.

After his goal against Partick Thistle, Griffiths has now scored 26 goals in 25 league matches. With nine matches remaining, Griffiths is on target to match Larsson's 15-year record.

Another record Griffiths could have in his sights is Larsson's stunning 53 goals in all competitions from the 00/01 season, Griffiths at best has 11 games to find the 18 goals needed, a big ask, but not imposible.

More likely will be the silver medal position, Charlie Nicholas netted 48 goals in all competitions in 1982/83, Griffiths is only 13 goals shy of that tally, and will be well within his reach if he nets a hat-trick or better in his next few games.
